Abstract:
An archaeological excavation was carried out on Land off Lord's Walk, Eriswell, Suffolk. The excavation followed an archaeological evaluation (SCCAS report No. 2012/026) and was a condition on planning application F/2011/0163/FUL. The previous evaluation identified four pits and three ditches across two evaluation trenches. Iron Age pottery was recovered from all the pits and one ditch. The excavation stage of the project identified the full extent of these known pits and ditches, present within the development area, as well as an unexpectedly dense archaeological horizon concentrated towards the central and western end of the area. The horizon included twelve ditches forming various enclosures and boundary systems and up to sixty pits arranged in a central cluster and extending westwards. Pottery evidence recovered from the majority of features is of Late Iron Age date which continued from between the early third to early first century BC. Several phases of pitting were apparent, including a probable pit alignment and smaller clusters, although stratigraphic and dating evidence makes detailed phasing difficult at the current stage of work. The various boundary systems present on site also suggest unique phases of activity that are likely to be contemporary with or predate the pits. A pit group of a similar arrangement and date to those found during this excavation was recorded approximately 250m south-east of the development area at ERL 147, Liberty Village: Phase 1. This report quantifies and assesses the site archive and its potential and significance, as applied to specific research questions drawn from both regional and local agendas. The further work required for adequate dissemination of the evaluation and excavation results are laid out with an estimated timeframe and costing.
